df.to_stata doesn't handle boolean columns · Issue #7097 · pandas-dev/pandas (original) (raw)

I'd expected this to generate a row of 1's and 0's in the dta file...

DataFrame([True, False]).to_stata('test.dta')

But it generates the following error:

sbox/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pandas/io/stata.pyc in _dtype_to_stata_type(dtype)
884 else: # pragma : no cover
885 raise ValueError("Data type %s not currently understood. "
--> 886 "Please report an error to the developers." % dtype)
887
888

ValueError: Data type bool not currently understood. Please report an error to the developers.
